The Larry LaBorde Award for Exceptional Merit

The Larry LaBorde Award for Exceptional Merit
Award Criteria:

Larry LaBorde

This is awarded only when existing awards seem inadequate to acknowledge the high regard with which a skater is held in the Ice Chalet community. It was established to honor the achievements of a skater at the Ice Chalet who has proven him or herself to merit exceptional recognition for professional dedication, noble spirit, showmanship, and excellence in multiple skating disciplines. This skater should display all the characteristics of a skater who deserves the Robert Unger Award for Professionalism and Dedication, as well as the Hans Brinker Noble Spirit Award. This skater is also expected to demonstrate showmanship and pure joy for the sport of ice skating, in the proud tradition of the Ice Chalet’s owner, manager, and head pro, Larry LaBorde. Past winners: Jonathan Shelton (2017), Julia Hardin (2018).
